The invention relates to a modular, expandable measuring device comprising an access-protected area.2.1 Systems having a variety of designs are known which offer protection against unauthorized manipulation by end users/customers, in particular comprising a sealable housing cover or an electronic security seal. The user is always the measuring facility operator or measurement service provider, who procures the resource counters, installs them at the customer's site, services and reads them; the same applies to communication installations. Lacking in practice, however, is a measuring device/meter which can be used universally, independently of other technical conditions, and which can be expanded/adapted in a simple manner and has at least one access-protected area/space in the housing.2.2. According to the invention, the measuring device, in particular modular energy meter (EZ), comprises: a two-part housing (SA, U) having a detachable connection for holding together the housing parts; at least one internal module (Z, K, IO, IR) arranged in a protected area; at least one external module (EO, ER, EK, EKR) arranged outside of the protected area; and at least one optical interface (OSE, OSI) which is arranged in the internal module (Z, K, IO, IR) and/or in the external module (EO, ER, EK, EKR) and is used for communication, including the detection of the opening of the protected area.2.3 The invention pertains to the field of measuring devices and systems for the combined recording of consumption data.

    摘要: Differently designed measuring systems exist of which most contain a central signal processing unit and a number of electrical measuring components, and in which the measured values furnished by the measuring components are optically transmitted over optical wave guides. The aim of the invention is to provide a measuring system of this type, which has low power consumption and enables a reliable optical data transmission. To this end, an optical loop is provided between a central measuring unit (MG) and a sensor head (SK). Microprocessors (MP1, MP2), which are situated inside the central measuring unit (MG) and inside the sensor head (SK), carry out transmitting, measuring and monitoring tasks as a distributed controller with bi-directional data communication. A frame synchronization signal serves both for supplying power as well as for deriving a clock signal for block-oriented data transmission. A data communication is carried out for conducting a parameterization and/or programming between the central measuring unit (MG) and the sensor head (SK), and a pre-preprocessing of the measured values is carried out in the sensor head (SK), particularly a measured value correction and/or a range switching and/or a reprogramming of the filtering characteristics and/or an automatic compensation are/is carried out in the sensor head (SK).

    摘要: Disclosed are devices and methods for identification and cancellation of interfering signals, especially far-end crosstalk (FEXT), in a communication system with at least two pairs of wires of a balanced line bundle. The devices include at least a cancellation circuit, which is connected downstream to dead time elements, an interference characteristic detection device and a cancellation control unit, which controls a setting of filter coefficients of an adaptive filter and the cancellation signal source. The adaptive filter is configured as a digital cancellation filter having filter coefficients separated in time by a first delay element having the delay time T, and having an adjustable additional delay time t, whereby the setting of the additional delay time τ takes place together with the setting of filter coefficients.

In accordance with the method and system, an object detection algorithm based on a Gaussian mixture model and expanded object tracking based on Mean-Shift are combined with each other in object detection. The object detection is expanded in accordance with a model of the background by improved removal of shadows, the binary mask generated in this way is used to create an asymmetric filter core, and then the actual algorithm for the shape-adaptive object tracking, expanded by a segmentation step for adapting the shape, is initialized, and therefore a determination at least of the object shape or object contour or the orientation of the object in space is made possible.
